Hi there, I am going to be absolutely honest, I have never been shooting in my life, however, I am looking to find and learn from a good club in the Newcastle area. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of a good club for rifles? And Im I corrent in thinking that I first need to learn to shoot with Air Rifles before applying for a licence to shoot anything bigger? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards,
